Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 4.9 over 74 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

20 of 34 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.12 catches per match over 162 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 43 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.68 for the level played (National competition 18 · State competition 6 · 1st grade 47 · Rep Div 1 22 · 2nd grade 45 · 3rd grade 19 · Club 3 · 4th grade 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
Fielding
Outfield: 19 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 162 matches — 0.12 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 74 innings at 4.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
218 wickets in 155 matches bowled in (of 162 played) — 1.41 per match at 25.5, economy 4.10, strike rate 37.4.
